THERE seems to be very general concur.
renee In the opinion expressed by The
MINER yesterday that the Board Of Trade
could most appropriately lend it's assist
ance to a settlement between the surface
claimants and the holders Of the mineral
patents to the Smokehouss and other lodea
that are retarding the development of The
city. The members OF the Board should
take the matter seriously under considera.

a~melioration or reformation that would

Bos: D-MocR n: Drs. Dubois

ing laughing gas, which is connected
by rubber tubes with pump and glass
jar, with which carbonic acid gas and
sulphuretted hydrogen are injected
The p p,tient, a youth named Field,
was quite low with the disease. The
Treatment has arrested his terrible
night sweats, lesscned the severity OF
his cough. and made favorable
change in the texture of expectora-
tions. In short he is every way i'm
proving. The new remedy will be
carefully aud thoroughly tested. Drs.
Collister and Dubois, who are in the
front ranks of progressive medical
science, are the first physicians to test
the carbonic gas treatment in the
United States outside OF Philadelphia;
and they certainly deserve credit for
keeping abreast with the advances
made by the profession. The case
will he watche with interest by the
public as reported hy the doctors and
noted from time to time in these
columns. Should cure be effected
it will corroborate the most wonderful
discovery of the nineteenth century.
